The sun is shining today...for the second day in a row...after 5 days of constant rain and drizzle and wet and gray and cold and YUCK. Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy. 'Nuff said.

Something crisp and refreshing to sip as I enjoy this sunny day? Of course. How about a Pomegranate-Honey Cooler? This is basically a wine cooler, but not your syrupy sweet Bartels and Jaymes(rest assured, I had to Google to know how to spell Jaymes properly). Blending dry and slightly lemony Pinot Grigio with the mild and fruity pomegranate juice creates a brisk, fresh drink that is thirst-quenching on a sunny summer's day. Add just enough honey to balance the tartness, but don't go overboard.

Now, please excuse me. I have some sunshine to enjoy with the Pomegranate-Honey CoolerOn My Plate (or rather, In My Glass...but that might be another blog).

Yes, this did come from an issue of Martha Stewart magazine. I usually try to credit where my adaptations of the recipes originated, but somehow in my attempt to keep this post brief, skipped it this time. Thanks for pointing it out.
